Romance is a dying art. Truly. In the age of smart phones, Snapchat and communicating through emojis, dating is, frankly, limping along like a squirrel run over by a semi. Too much? Perhaps. But in this era of 140 character expression, chivalry has taken a hit. Which poses the question, what are we to expectContinue reading Dating Etiquette for the Social Media OBSESSED
Oprah and the Golden Globes Sham
The Golden Globes were last night. Just in case your phone died, your power was out, or you’ve had no contact with the outside world in the last 24 hours. And, unpopular opinion alert: watching the whole thing, I kind of felt a little bit, oh, sick to my stomach. Seeing the uber wealthy celebsContinue reading Oprah and the Golden Globes Sham
On Guard
So I’m leaving for Chicago tomorrow. Just staying over for one night, and then back to NYC tomorrow. But I’m going because my dad is receiving an award…the Man of the Year Award, from an international organization, so I’m going there to sit in the audience and cheer him on. So dad, if you’re readingContinue reading On Guard
DRINK YOUR VITAMINS!
Well here we are, January 3. In the theme of mind/body/spirit wellness from the inside-out, I thought I’d share my secret weapon. A special drink that I enjoy with my breakfast just about everyday that packs a punch in the nutrition department. Now, this is a delicate post, because truthfully, in eating disorder recovery, healthyContinue reading DRINK YOUR VITAMINS!
Recovery-Positive Resolutions
Happy New Year friends! I hope you rang in the New Year in style 🙂 I was nursing a pretty bad cold, so mine consisted of watching New Year’s Rockin’ Eve, hot tea, and a face mask 🙂 It was actually a really nice change of pace. NYE in NYC, as you can imagine, isContinue reading Recovery-Positive Resolutions
The Thing about Clean Slates
It’s been a really interesting time that I’ve been home here. Like, really interesting. To the point where, I have been just so caught up in the moment, and wrapped up in life, allowing my heart to be open…it’s almost as though I am a different person. Let’s just say that for truly the first time,Continue reading The Thing about Clean Slates
Blackmail Material :)
Merry Christmas friends!! I hope you all had a beautiful Christmas. I had waaaay too much fun with my family, and the day got away from me! So to make up for not posting yesterday, please enjoy this glimpse into last evening’s antics. Yes, it’s the Spice Girls. But no, for real, I decided toContinue reading Blackmail Material 🙂
The Beauty of Humility
There’s a perspective that you gain with time. There are things that you see when you’re out of the thick of the moment. Kind of like when the news cuts to a helicopter-view of a traffic jam. From the viewpoint of a car in the snarl, all you can see are exhaust pipes and theContinue reading The Beauty of Humility
Lessons in da Club
OK, you seriously can’t make this stuff up, guys. ANOTHER weird incident happened at church yesterday. So, as you may recall, the last four Sundays, something peculiar has occurred at Mass. This time, it involved me calling 9-1-1. To refresh: #1: The homeless man who chugged the communion wine and exited with a ruckus. #2:Continue reading Lessons in da Club
Cherishing Time
It’s 7:30 am. In typical New York City fashion, there are sirens going outside. Nothing unusual. I woke up to snow blanketing the sidewalks and the streets below. It makes NYC seem softer. Less like the intimidating, eat-you-alive city that it is. My mom is visiting. We’ve been shopping, eating and enjoying our way thoughContinue reading Cherishing Time
